![]() ![]() Though it does seems petty for them to leave off Fall Out and Nothing Achieving from their first single with original guitarist Henry Padovani. Still, it’s nice to have nearly all the tunes in one place. These new remasters tighten up the bottom end of the mix noticeably, which leaves some tracks feeling a bit thin and top-endy. WHAT DOES IT SOUND LIKE? Good - though perhaps not quite as good as it should. WHAT IS THIS? The first comprehensive collection in 25 years, Every Move You Make is a six-disc box housing newly remastered versions of all their studio albums - Outlandos d’Amour (1978), Reggatta de Blanc (1979), Zenyatta Mondatta (1980), Ghost in the Machine (1981) and Synchronicity (1983) - plus a sixth disc of non-album B-sides (many penned by Summers and Copeland, who often found their quirkier tunes overshadowed by Sting‘s bulletproof pop-chart juggernauts). AKA the thing that paid for Sting’s Tuscan estate. AKA the trio that introduced reggae-pop to the masses. W HO ARE THEY? Singer-bassist and Tantric sex enthusiast Sting, drummer/nemesis and token American Stewart Copeland and inoffensive middle-man guitarist Andy Summers - AKA the biggest British band of the late ’70s and early ’80s (as evinced by the massive hoopla over their brief reunion tour in 2007).
